Crafting Cupcake - Stampin' Up!® 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar

   I went to a crafting day organized by one of my downline last weekend and it's such a fun day of crafting and chatting and getting to focus on some paper crafting projects for the whole day.  The only problem is deciding just what projects and supplies to bring!  A lot of people do scrapbooking and are working on particular pages/books but I usually bring supplies to make cards.  I tend to design the cards at home and then just bring the paper and supplies to make multiples of the designs because it's really hard for me to not have ALL of my supplies right there lol!  But I decided to bring all of the products that came in the 2025 12 Days of Crafting Advent calendar and see what I could come up with.

  I did limit myself to to cardstock in the colors of the Advent calendar DSP so I did have a little bit of a focus.  I ended up making 4 of this design and I think it turned out pretty cute using limited supplies!

  I started with a Pretty in Pink base then added a layer of Basic White.  I cut 4 squares of the DSP and adhered them.  Before adhering the Basic White panel I wrapped a bit of baker's twine around it and tied a bow.

  The cupcake is stamped in Pretty and Pink and Basic Beige and then I fussy cut it and popped it on a postage stamp die cut which is adhered to a square of Misty Moonlight.  

  A little Misty Moonlight flower is also fussy cut and popped on the cupcake.

  I stamped the birthday sentiment below in Misty Moonlight ink and then added some of the gold dots that also came in the calendar.

  I really like how all the products coordinate with each other but can also be used on their own for all year round.  I'm looking forward to using more of the supplies soon!  If you're interested in the 12 Days of Advent Crafting Calendar it is still available but it is on the Last Chance List so there's no telling how long it will be available so don't wait if you have to have it!

  Thanks for looking! Did you stamp today?
